This is dedicated to all friends who have
eaten countless meals and would like to opt for food cooked without
added fat, butter, oil, cream and starch. It is a new approach to
cooking and one that has been overdue.

Attitudes to food are constantly changing
and more and more people are becoming aware that our Western diet is
neither particularly healthy nor well balanced. We eat too much starch,
cook with too much fat and ruin the flavour of our food with heavy
sauces. What is needed is a radical re-think, a change, and innovation.
The answer --- cooking without added fat.

There is no mystique attached to this way
of cooking. It is easy and simple to follow, yet the difference in
taste is remarkable. Food is lighter, cleaner and easier to digest. The
full flavor of the ingredients is developed and after a while you will
wonder how you could ever have cooked differently.
